2A | JANUARY 7 — JANUARY 13, 2016 | SOUTH FLORIDA TIMES | SFLTIMES.COM Haiti continues to face national voting protest Reform needed PHOTO COURTESY OF CHICAGOPOLICYREVIEW.ORG CHICAGO, FROM 1A Mayor Rahm Emanuel appointed former federal prosecutor Sharon Fairley to head IPRA last month after her predecessor resigned amid growing protests over the McDonald shooting. Critics argue IPRA has too many vested interests and is beyond salvaging, saying it should be scrapped altogether and replaced with a new body run by civilians with no links to city power structures. Suspicion about police reform runs deep in Chicago, where the perception is that past much-ballyhooed police reforms changed little. Past claims by the mayor's office that IPRA is uniquely independent were questioned with the release last week of 3,000 pages of city emails relating to McDonald's 2014 shooting. In a March 11, 2015, email from the then- head of IPRA, Scott Ando, he asks about forwarding witness interview transcripts to the city's law department ``for their use in (lawsuit) settlement negotiations with'' the McDonald family. Other emails show Emanuel advisers and IPRA seeking to coordinate their response to the video, which officials recognized could spark outrage. The emails came days after police fatally A Haitian journalist covering a protest in Sonapi is overcome by tear gas fired by police in Port-au-Prince. PHOTO COURTESY OF TICOTIMES.NET HAITI, FROM 1A Opposition parties dispute official results showing pro- government candidate Moise Jovenel topping the October vote. He’s due to confront second-place finisher Jude Celestin, who also has challenged the official count. Because of the dispute, which led to boisterous street protests, Haiti's electoral council postponed the runoff, which was initially set for December, and the government named the commission to look at the process and recommend changes. Haitian President Michel Martelly announced that a postponed presidential runoff vote will be held on Jan. 17. Martelly says he received two letters from Haiti's Provi- sional Electoral Council warning that to fulfill the constitutional mandate of inaugurating a new president on Feb. 7, the runoff should be held by Jan. 17 at the latest. On Friday, Martelly called on Haitians “to vote en masse, like they should, for the person who best represents them.” The council earlier postponed the Dec. 27 presidential runoff to allow a five-member commission to address allegations of multiple voting and ballot tampering. The opposition is demanding an independent review of the late October first round of voting which it insists was rigged in favor of government-backed candidate Jovenel Moise. Jude Celestin came in second. shot two other people: 19-year-old Quintonio LeGrier, who police said was being “combative;” and 55-year-old Bettie Jones, who authorities said was killed accidentally. Both were black. Chang's ruling Monday throws out an April jury decision that two officers were justified in killing Darius Pinex during a 2011 traffic stop. The officers had said they stopped Pinex because his car matched a description they heard on their police radio of a car suspected of involvement in an earlier shooting. But records emerged after the trial began that officers weren't listening to the channel broadcasting the radio traffic about the suspect's car. The judge said a city lawyer “intentionally concealed” that evidence. The city's law department did not imme- diately respond to a message seeking comment.
